Detailed Description

More sophisticated learning-based automatic white balance algorithm.

As GrayworldWB, this algorithm works by applying different gains to the input image channels, but their computation is a bit more involved compared to the simple gray-world assumption. More details about the algorithm can be found in [30] .

To mask out saturated pixels this function uses only pixels that satisfy the following condition:

\[ \frac{\textrm{max}(R,G,B)}{\texttt{range_max_val}} < \texttt{saturation_thresh} \]

Currently supports images of type CV_8UC3 and CV_16UC3.

Member Function Documentation

§ extractSimpleFeatures()

virtual void cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::extractSimpleFeatures ( InputArray  src,
OutputArray  dst 
)
pure virtual

Implements the feature extraction part of the algorithm.

In accordance with [30] , computes the following features for the input image:

  1. Chromaticity of an average (R,G,B) tuple
  2. Chromaticity of the brightest (R,G,B) tuple (while ignoring saturated pixels)
  3. Chromaticity of the dominant (R,G,B) tuple (the one that has the highest value in the RGB histogram)
  4. Mode of the chromaticity palette, that is constructed by taking 300 most common colors according to the RGB histogram and projecting them on the chromaticity plane. Mode is the most high-density point of the palette, which is computed by a straightforward fixed-bandwidth kernel density estimator with a Epanechnikov kernel function.
Parameters
srcInput three-channel image (BGR color space is assumed).
dstAn array of four (r,g) chromaticity tuples corresponding to the features listed above.

§ getHistBinNum()

virtual int cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::getHistBinNum ( ) const
pure virtual

Defines the size of one dimension of a three-dimensional RGB histogram that is used internally by the algorithm. It often makes sense to increase the number of bins for images with higher bit depth (e.g. 256 bins for a 12 bit image).

§ getRangeMaxVal()

virtual int cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::getRangeMaxVal ( ) const
pure virtual

Maximum possible value of the input image (e.g. 255 for 8 bit images, 4095 for 12 bit images)

See also
setRangeMaxVal

§ getSaturationThreshold()

virtual float cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::getSaturationThreshold ( ) const
pure virtual

Threshold that is used to determine saturated pixels, i.e. pixels where at least one of the channels exceeds \(\texttt{saturation_threshold}\times\texttt{range_max_val}\) are ignored.

See also
setSaturationThreshold

§ setHistBinNum()

virtual void cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::setHistBinNum ( int  val)
pure virtual

Defines the size of one dimension of a three-dimensional RGB histogram that is used internally by the algorithm. It often makes sense to increase the number of bins for images with higher bit depth (e.g. 256 bins for a 12 bit image).

§ setRangeMaxVal()

virtual void cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::setRangeMaxVal ( int  val)
pure virtual

§ setSaturationThreshold()

virtual void cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::setSaturationThreshold ( float  val)
pure virtual

Threshold that is used to determine saturated pixels, i.e. pixels where at least one of the channels exceeds \(\texttt{saturation_threshold}\times\texttt{range_max_val}\) are ignored.
